So I recently picked up a copy(cd) of Beatles For Sale, and while I knew most of the songs I had never listened to it as an album. Really enjoying it and decided to challenge myself for this festival(been a while) to cover the entire album, hence...Hook For Sale.
This 1st one is a bit punky and hits you in the face right out of the gate, beware. The uke is my Kala Tenor Resonator, done in the car w/br80.
1 uke/vocal (stereo)

Great little reimagining of this track, which is possibly my favourite pre 1965 Beatles track (along with If I Fell). I can't wait to hear you cover the entire album, there are definitely some hidden gems on there.

A very cool, completely re-thought, version of this song! A great one for The BeatlesFest'21. You Punk Rocked it up my friend...well done Hook!

Tons of fun! Actually, it's a nice contrast to the original song, which was kind of a downer - your version is an upper all the way!

Nicely done, Mr. Hook  - looking forward to the finished album!

A totally off the wall version of this one, and I loved it! Great fun Hook, amazing vocal performance and inspired uke playing.

Comes across as Jamaican to my ears! Like reggae on the beach. I love how you just attack it. 'Givin' it large' as we'd say here. Energetic, inspired, and a beautiful performance. That car studio is turning out some beauties. You should hire it out! See if you can get a band in there, lol.

1:36 of Hook goodness :-)

i can't take it anymore! i've listened to all the posts of this current series of Beattles festival 2921 and the quality is so good from all of them

so I'm short of compliments and as the song is called "no reply"...so no reply

PS I don't dare to do a vocal cover for this festival, so maybe I'll do a lap steel instrumental version of "Because" ;)

oui ce n'est pas le festival 2921!...je suis en avance de quelques années ;D
